Season 3 ideas

I just thought that if anyone got some ideas for season 3 it would be useful to have place to say those ideas...
Anyhow i thought that these would be cool ones
1. At qualifying sessions should be rule that you gotta get back to pits always not just hit esc if lose front wing or something if you cant get back to pits youre out from quali that would make it more realistic
2. Im not sure about this mod were using next season but atleast if you ask me 50% damage isnt enough cause there really isnt many retires coz someones tire fell of at big crash usually everyone just loses wing or something...

thx sami, alot will change, you will see....im excited about everything..winter season wont begin until november....but ya a new flash web is being built, new forum, new rules, structure, will basically be a brand new league

will debut everything upon completion of fsone season....for the two months there are no f1 events, would like to get endurance racing going.

i think we should use 100% race distance and damage like 60-65% but rememeber sami, every mod has difrent damages, for example fsone cars are very strong but mmg are very vulnerable, suspension most.

The best leagues use cockpit view only.

not exactly...would cause more problems, than gain...especially if like most open wheel mods, and the rear view mirrors are deactivated...dont want 80 wrecks each race.

completly agree bgai. btw what about suzuka, gp4 or 2005?

Completely agree with Holy.

Won't cause anymore wrecks than having all the other aids turned off. Unless it's just the 3 seconds that it costs you that your worried about there BG?

It's more like my video card gives out when I use cockpit view around too many other cars.

lmao im down with everything..i race in pay to play league....sayin we do do that, wen u get hit up the ass frequently dont cry about nothin lol.

we can try it during the off season...my only gripe is no mirrors, have no idea what person behind is doin until they dive bomb inside

Nah.

nice, problem for you solved;]

just putting it out there,

Track that will be raced that weekend will not load until practice server 48 hours prior to race like GP weekend.

during the week various tracks raced like in the PS3 F1CE days, constant races, boy do i miss being able to race maybe 20 races 4 to 6 laps each , that's what kept me coming back for more , wish we could do that more. 2000 laps on a track before a race that's 50 laps is ok, but something different would be ok too.I would for sure race more F1 if we have something like the F1CE days.

another good idea, maybe after race, ill reload server to those specs, saturday nite after a race till about tuesday, then put long practice sessions back on for wednesday to up to race time

im feeling that idea alot.

maybe because of running VISTA??

Oh yeah, my bad. I was expecting that people might use the brakes once in awhile but then I realized my error......

50/50 vote, will stay how it is now.....no forced view for the league events, maybe for fun a few nights, hsw good idea with the races....ill load all the tracks back on the server next week with short practices and 5lap races....

Not a fan of this as it's unfair for people who may not be able to practice much in that time.... I do most of my practicing from Monday night thru Thursday night.

sprint races are ok but people have the all or nothing attitude @ T1 maybe we do a couple after an F1 race.

rfactor works with Window7 & Vista... i got both OS .

I always use cockpit view because i like it to be more realistic makes the game more of a simulation than an arcade game, i know some people use Tcam or outside the car and i think it is an advantage in a way because you view is higher up and you can see the corner entry and apex better and what is happening around the vehical on starts or passing.
Mirrors can be activated very easily in the game under controler Mappings in the games ettings menu you set the keyboard buttons to toggle what mirrors you want, in the PLR file you can pick what options for mirrors you want
eg."my settings"

[ Graphic Options ]
Broadcast Overlay="1"
Texture Detail="3"
Vertical FOV Angle="34" // 34=use default, otherwise is the FOV for attached cameras (horiz is calculated based on aspect ratio)
Rearview="2" // 0=Off, 1=Center and Side, 2=Center only, 3=Side only (virtual mirrors only, in-car mirrors are on/off)
Allow Rearview In Swingman="0"
Virtual Rearview In Cockpit="1"
Rearview Width="64.00000"
Rearview Height="14.00000"
Rearview Cull="0" // Whether to cull objects in the rearview based on visgroups in the SCN file
Seat Adjustment Aft="-0.10000"
Seat Adjustment Up="0.06700"
Mirror Adjustment Horizontal="0.00000"
Mirror Adjustment Vertical="0.00000"
Cockpit Vibration Mult1="0.00000" // Primary vibration multiplier affects eyepoint position (base magnitude is in VEH or cockpit file)
Cockpit Vibration Freq1="0.00000" // Primary rate of vibration affects eyepoint position (higher framerates allow higher rates)
Cockpit Vibration Mult2="0.00000" // Secondary vibration multiplier affects eyepoint orientation (base magnitude is in VEH or cockpit file)
Cockpit Vibration Freq2="0.00000" // Secondary rate of vibration affects eyepoint orientation
Moving Rearview="0" // Whether mirrors respond to head movement in cockpit (0=none, 1=position-only, 2=FOV-only, 3=both) - add 4 if you want to IGNORE head-tracking movement
Rearview_Front_Clip="0.00000" // Front plane distance for mirror (0.0 = use default for scene)
Rearview_Back_Clip="500.00000" // Back plane distance for mirror (0.0 = use default for scene)
Rearview Particles="0"
Self In TV Rearview="0" // add values for any that should be visible (0=none): 1=rear wing & wheels, 2=body & susp, 4=cockpit, 8=steering wheel (15=all)
Self In Cockpit Rearview="0" // add values for any that should be visible (0=none): 1=rear wing & wheels, 2=body & susp, 4=cockpit, 8=steering wheel (15=all)


I turn off head movement and adjust the Look ahead feature to about 20%
I dont care what other people do this is just show what incar options ther are.

I use cockpit view all the time, I was faster with tcam, but i have better experience with cockpit view, would like to try some different setting thou, Where would i paste the setting you mentioned? PLR? where is that?
